Here is the English translation of the provided text, with the original Chinese line breaks preserved:---
Recurring symptoms of lower back pain, I hope you go to the hospital for a thorough examination. Get an X-ray or MRI of the lumbar spine. It may not rule out issues like lumbar disc herniation or bone spurs causing sciatica.
Regarding your sleeping mattress, if it's springy, I strongly recommend sleeping on a hard board bed. Treatments such as traction, physical therapy, infrared therapy, and acupuncture/massage can help.
It's essential to avoid maintaining a prolonged posture or engaging in repetitive training, especially bending over for extended periods. Rest for about 10 minutes every hour. Also, be mindful of the possibility of lumbar muscle strain.
